Adem SOMYUREK (Northern Metropolitan) (12:51): (599) My constituency question is directed to the Minister for Planning concerning the proposal to build a quarry at the new Beveridge North West precinct. I have received various forms of engagement from residents complaining about the construction of the quarry, which is proposed to be located less than 1 kilometre from residential areas. Whilst I sympathise with the residents, I understand the issue is not straightforward because Melbourne is in urgent need of new quarries to build houses and infrastructure such as roads and railways. The former minister undertook to make a decision on the fate of the quarry by October last year, but as yet no decision has been made. I ask the minister to provide an update to the residents of Wallan and Beveridge on when she will hand down a decision on this very important issue for my constituents.
